Over the years as a personal injury lawyer, I’ve answered countless questions about cases. People want to know whether they have a claim, how long the process will take, or what their case might be worth. Those are all important questions, but there’s one I wish more people would ask before hiring an attorney:
What makes your law firm different, and why should I choose you?
I believe the answer to that question tells you far more than any advertisement ever could.
I Wish More People Asked This Question
When you’re choosing a law firm, you’re choosing the people who will guide you through one of the most difficult periods of your life. That decision deserves more than a quick comparison of slogans or settlement figures.
Almost every law firm says it cares about its clients, fights for justice, and gets results. There’s nothing wrong with those claims, but they don’t tell you what it’ll actually be like to work with that firm. What I think really matters is whether you’ll feel comfortable asking questions, whether you’ll stay informed, and whether you’ll know someone is looking out for you from start to finish. You won’t get those answers from a billboard or a commercial.

The Difference Isn’t What I Say; It’s What My Clients Experience
I’ve always believed that actions matter more than promises. Anyone can tell you they provide great service. What matters is whether you experience it from your first conversation until your case is resolved.
To me, communication is one of the most important parts of the job. I want my clients to feel comfortable calling me when they have a question or concern. I make time to talk with them because I never want anyone to feel like they’re just another file sitting on my desk. That’s also why I give my clients my cell phone number. If they need me, I want them to know they can reach me.
I also try to take as much off my clients’ shoulders as I can. My team handles property damage claims as a courtesy, and we cover case-related expenses while the case is moving forward. The goal is to make the process easier, not add more stress to an already difficult situation. That lets my clients focus on what’s most important: getting better and moving forward with their lives.
Don’t Be Afraid to Interview Your Attorney
Before you hire any law firm, ask questions. Find out who will actually handle your case. Ask how communication works and how often you can expect updates. Ask what happens if the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer. Most importantly, ask what truly makes that law firm different from the next one.
Personally, I welcome those conversations. I believe choosing an attorney should never feel like a leap of faith. It should be an informed decision based on trust, transparency, and confidence that the person representing you genuinely cares about your future.
